PRINCE OF WALES
IS OPERATED ON
PHYSICIANS SAY CONDITION IS
g ? H SATISFACTORY
Will fit Confined to His Room Only a
Few Dayt— Tha Troubl* It ,
Said Not to Be
. Serloui ,
By Associated Fr«M
LONDON, April 3.— The Prince of
Wales underwent an operation today
nt Marlborough house, the nature of
which was not divulged In the official
statement subsequently Issued. Thfl
public was assured that nothting seri
ous was the matter by Sir Francis

"Owing to a slight operation this

his room for a few days. As his con
dition gives rise to n6 uneasiness, no

FEAR HARM TO
THE PRESIDENT
(Continued, from Fa«r« On*,)
but 1 am going to take one In the
open, under God's blue heaven," said
President Roosevelt today, standing en
the platform by his special train at
the Pennsylvania station, and con
versing with Congressman Olmstead,
United States Attorney McCarroll and
United States Marshal Leonard, in the
presence of a great crowd that gath
ered at the station to meet him. It was
suggested to the president that things
would go along In a smooth manner,
even If he were absent.
"Oh, things will be all right," he
said. "I have left Taft sitting on the
lid keeping down that San Domingo
matter."
Later he said: "I am going to have
an outing. I am going to get away
where I won't even .think of a fourth
class postmaster."
-When the train came In the crowJ
was in the station balcony and gave th?
president a cheer as the train stopped.
He stood on the rear platform waving
his hand to the crowd and fairly beam
ing with good nature. When the train
stopped the president stepped from the
platform with the remark to a secret
service officer: "Pass right along now.
and If this crowd Isn't too big I'll shake
hands with all of you."
At > this there was a rush to shake
Hands with him. When some little
girls Were handed up to him he 'said:
"God bless the children," and then,
turning to Congressman Olmstead, lie
said: "You know, I believe in the-se
children."
To one old soldier with a button in
his coat the president said: "How ara
you, comrade?"
It was 1:07 as the train moved off.
One man proposed three cheers for
"Teddy," which were given with a will,
and the president laughed heartily at
the fumillarlty. His last remark as the
train got up speed was a hearty "So
long, boys; good by."

PRINCE OF WALES
ANDREW D. WHITE
HIS CLOSE CALL
EX-AMBASSADOR MEETS WITH
STRANGE ACCIDENT
Broken Window In Pullman Car Just
Misses Cutting Off His Head
and Wounds Him
Severely
By Associated Press.
NEW YORK, April 3.— Andrew D.
White, former president of Cornell uni
versity and ex-ambasador to Germany,
has had a narrow escape from death
while returning to this city from New
Haven. He was severely cut by glass
from a broken window and only es
caped by the narrowest margin from
losing the top of . his head. The silk
hat which he wore was cut across as
if by a knife scarcely more than one
eighth of an inch from the top of his
head.
Mr. White had a seat in a Pullman,
two cars back from the engine. Near
him sat a woman and a child. The
train was running at a high rate of
speed near Rye when It pased a freight
train going in the opposite direction.
Suddenly there was a crash arid a
shower of glass and bits of wood fell
on Mr. White, who had been reading.
His hands and arms were severely cut,
while a piece of plate glass had cut
his silk hat almost in two.
The former diplomat was dazed by
the suddenneFS of the crash, and Is
still suffering from the shock. The
woman passenger sitting near by was
slightly hurt, and when the train
reached New York she was sent home
In a cab.
Examination of the car showed that
something -had hit the double window
opposite where Mr. White was seat
ed. Glass from that side apparently
had been hurled across the" car with
such force that the window beside the
former diplomat was demolished. The
train was stopped, but no cause for
the accident could be found, nor was
there evidence that anything had been
thrown at the train. Trainmen reached
the conclusion that a car door on the
passing freight caused the accident.

KNABENSHUE TO
TRY DARING FEAT
WILL LOOP BROOKLYN BRIDGE
WITH AIRSHIP
Intrepid Sky Chauffeur Intends to
Start for New York Today— The
Undertaking Moat Difficult .
Tried by Aeronauts
Roy Knnbenshue, the famed liky
chauffeur, who startled the world by
the manner in which he handled tho
ulrxhlp California Arrow, not only at
the fnlr In St. Louis, but later In Los
Angeles, Intends to leave for New York
today.
The young navigator of the nlr goea
to the metropolis to attempt a feat
that for daring has never been equaled
In the history of aeronautics. It is
this: To twice loop the Brooklyn
bridge, going under and then back over
and then repeat.
Few realize the hazards taken by
the aeronaut in attempting such a
feat. The Arrow files best at an alti
tude of about 1000 feet. She must be
brought down almost on the level of
the water and driven under the bridge
at full speed. The span Is but 180
feet high, and while this Is enormous
for all ordfnury purposes, it is ex
tremely low as a passage for air
ships.
A Difficult Feat
Knabenshue will be forced to drive
his ship under the huge structure at
a high rate of speed and hold her
steady nt the same time, for other
wise It would rise and strike the bridge
with disastrous and perhaps fatal re
sults.
Since Knabenshue made his first trip
In Los Angeles with the Arrow the
people have felt a personal Interest In
the young aeronaut, an Interest which
his cool daring and ever-present mod
esty served to increase.
His friends will be glad to know,
however, that he intends to visit Los
Angeles' again next winter, and he
hints that he may build here at that
time an airship after his own ideas,
for which he Is now gathering data,
and Which he thinks will be a world
beater. There should be no one bettev
able to Judge of the merits of an air
ship and the methods of building them
than he, 'for he has had more experi
ence in the handling of aerial vessels
than probably anyone else In this coun
try.
A Successful Aeronaut
Knabenshue's recent ascensions In
the Midget have been wonderful dem
onstrations In aeronautic science, aii'l
much valuable data has been gathered.
There yrc few men who would willing
ly embark In the nlr and sail at such
altitudes as to be out of sight of thu
earth in a balloon which appears to be
a mere toy. But because such a bal
loon was, the best for the purpose Kna
bonshue used It, and said nothing of
the great danger, if he thought of It.
He has made a study of aeronautics
all his life, despite many obstacles,
and had reached the point last summer
when he was engaged to handle the
Arrow that he was capable of handling
the sky yacht perfectly. He knows
how to handle a balloon or airship In
the air, and believes that if they are
properly handled the danger from
ordinary accidents is greatly reduced,
so does not let what might happen
worry him, but goes ahead and coolly
sees that It does not happen.
MEXICAN GALLANT IS
STABBED IN THE BACK
Dusky Rivals Resent His Conduct in
Escorting Senoritas to Their
Paternal Mansion
Playing the gallant and accompany
ing a couple of senoritas to their home
proved disastrous to Lulcano Grajada
last night. Grajada, who is a Mexican
laborer, had been to a dance with a pair
of his countrywomen, and was escort-
Ing them to the paternal mansion, on
Castelar street, about 13 o'clock, when
a pair of dusky Beau Brummels, who
resented his intrusion into what they
fancied as their own domain, stopped
him and stabbad him In the back.
The wound, although ugly looking
and painful, was In no wise fatal, and
Grajada betook himself to the police
station, where the receiving hospital
doctor dressed the cut and made him
easy for the night. Dr. Freedman
found it necessary to take half a dozen
stitches in the wound before It could
be closed.
Grajada knows his assailants by
sight and was able to give the police a
good description of them. A John Doe
warrant win be Issued this morning,
and the authorltiea anticipate no dif
ficulty In making an arrest.
INFANT SUES RAILROAD
FOR $15,000 DAMAGES
Twenty-Months.Old Child Alleges
Negligence on Part of the
, -Company
George E. Abbott, a 20-months-old In
fant, filed suit yesterday in the superior
court against the Lob Angeles Pacific
Railroad company for damages in the
sum of $IS,OOO for injuries alleged tc
have been sustained as a result of
negligence on the part of the agents of
the defendant company.
The complaint says that December 1
last a cur belonging to the defendant
company was so negligently and care
lessly propelled along Sixteenth street,
at a point between Normandle street
and Roosevelt avenue, as to run against
plaintiff, whereby the child was so in
jured that it became necessary to am
putate the infant's left arm and a por
tion of the left shoulder •
CANAL BOARD'S
MEMBERS NAMED
(Contlntifit from Pup* one.)
of Engineers, U. B. A.; Benjamin M
Harrod.
These names were announced at the
war department today, and in connec
tion with the announcement Secretary
Taft gave out for publication a state
ment showing' the allotments of sal
aries to the new commissioners, and
his own letter to the president and
one from the latter explaining the plan
of reorganization of the commission,
the reasons therefor and the particular
duties to be nslgned to each commis
sioner. The first rends as follows: ,
"The president has made an order
allowing n unlary of $7500 with travel
ing expenses, to each member of the
commission, and to the chairman of
the commission the additional compen
satloh of $22,500; to the chief engineer
dm iiilitiilminl compensation of $17,500,
nnd to the governor of the canal zone
the additional compensation of $10,000..
The hend of each department Is al
lowed the use of a furnished house on
the Isthmus and his traveling expenses
,when traveling on the business of the
commission. .
"The total is $102,500. The salaries
and allowances under the former com
mission amounted to $120,000.1 The to
tal compensation of the governor of
the zone and chief engineer are each
unchanged.
"Professor William H. Burr and Wil
liam B. Parsons, civil engineers, will
bo appointed as members o*f the con
sulting board of engineers."
New Commissioners Meet
After their induction into office and
their consultation with Secretary Tuft
the commissioners met in the office of
Governor Magoon and had a brief talk
over the reorganization plan, but they
were necessarily of a premature na
ture because the new commissioners
were unfamiliar by personal experience
with the mechanism the old commis
sion had created. It is said that there
Is no disposition to make sudden
changes In it, though In the end a more
or less complete reorganization Is ex
pected.
Under the president's order the actuaj
headquarters of the commission will
be In Panama and there probably will
be a considerable transfer of employes
from Washington to that place, leav
ing here only a sufficient force to carry
on the work of the administrative
branch and to keep the duplicate ac
counts.
Chairman Shonts, with Governor Ma
goon and Engineer Wallace, will spend
most of his time In t'jie zone,. but as the
administrative officers are directly !n
Mr. Shonts' charge he will be In Wash
ington more or less. The purchasing
agent of the company will probably be
established in New York.
Navy and Army Appears
Rear Admiral Endlcott and Col.
Ernst are charged with important
duties in connection with the navy and
army. The admiral is chief of the
naval bureau of docks and yards and
Col. Ernst is not only in charge of Im
portant river nnd harbor works In the
neighborhood of Chicago but Is preßl
dent of the Mississippi river commis
sion and a member of the international
deep waterway commission, which Is
to meet during the summer at Toronto.
Their continued presence on the Isth
mus is not necessary and it probably
will be quite (sufficient if they are only
long enough to attend the regular meet-
Ing at, Panama. This will enable Ad
miral Endlcott to meet the president's
wishes and t contlnue at the head of the
bureau of yards and docks.
Colonel Ernst will be relieved of the
river and harbor work In the Chicago
division by Colonel Wukkuan H. Blxby,
corps Of engineers, now on sick leave.
Engineer Wallace, who Is now on his
way from Panama, will be here
Wednesday or Thursday.
Colonel Ernst will continue to act as
the president of the Mississippi river
commission and member of the inter
national deep water commission.
Will Live on Isthmus
Governor Magoon will be required to
reside permanently on the Isthmus,
and has resigned his present position
as law officer of the bureau of Insular
affairs. It Is the present intention to
refrain from filling the vacancy thus
created. The insular bureau, like the
other bureaus of the war department,
will call on the Judge advocate gen
eral's office for any necessary legal
advice. .
Later in the day the new body met
at the 'office of the commission and
perfected its organization. The first
action taken was the appointment of
an executive committee, composed of
Chairman Shonts, Governor Magoon
and Chief Engineer Wallace.
The question of the disposition of the
minor officials and the clerical force
was left open.
Mr. Shonts left here tonght for a
brief visit to the west, to finish up
some private matters demanding his
attention.

Alliance Upon Chinese
By Aanoclntrri Press.
GUNSHU PASS, April 3.— A renewal
of fighting Is expected shortly. The
concentration of the Russian army is
complete with Its advance lines south
of the station of Slplnghai, seventy
four miles north of Tie pass. The
Japanese are screening their move
ments well by means of cavalry and it
Is difficult to locate the bulk of their
army. A heavy movement seems to be
In progress on the Russian flanks. The
railroad station at Changtufu, forty to
fifty 1 miles above Tie pass, Is occupied
by Japanese artillery, but so far as
ascertained It does not cover a large
body of troops.
A two-wheeled cart of the Russo-
Chlnese bank, containing more than
$2,500,000, which was lost during the
retreat from Mukden, has been found,
but the cash chest of the Ninth regi
ment of artillery Is still undiscovered
A movemrnt of Chinese bandits; led
by Japanese officers, through Mongolia
in the direction of Tsltsihar, 300 miles
west of Harbin, has been reported, nnd
pressure is being brought by the Jap
anese In China for an open alliance
with Japan. Yuan Shi Kla, governor
of Pechill province, and Gen. Ma, com
mander of the Chinese forcas on th<?

Suffering Among the Chinese .
By Associated Press
GENERAL OKU'S HEADQUAR
TERS IN THE FIELD, April 3, Via
Fusan. — There is much suffering
among the Chinese in the vicinity of
Mukden. Scores of villages were de
stroyed In the recent fighting and one
hundred thousand people are homeless
and destitute. The Chinese govern
ment is now feeding and housing sixty
thousand refugees at Mukden and also
furnishing seed grain. There Is but
little prospect for good crops this sea
son owing to a lack of farm animals
and Implements.
The Japanese are employing thous
ands of Chinese and paying them lib

RAILWAY ISSUE
IS PARAMOUNT
By Associated rrcas.
CHICAGO, April 3.— The municipal
election to be held hero tomorow will
In a large measure decide the street
railway question which for the past
few years has been the issue in all
local elections.
Street railway franchises estimated
to be worth $200,000,000 are at stake.
The question this year has simmered
dawn to immediate municipal owner
ship under Judge Edward F. Dunne,
the Democratic candidate, or a tenta
tive arrangement with the traction
companies providing for ultimate
municipal ownership under John M.
Harlan, the Republican nominee.
There are a number of other impor
tant Issues to be decided, but all have
been lost sight of owing to the Interest
that has been wrought In the main
issue. Both Harlan and Judge Dunne
have made a strenuous compalgn of
the city and tonight declare their con
fidence in being eleoted at the polls
tomorrow.
